The Chapa's

Another 20 member family shoot. One thing I can definitely say is that we are getting better at these large family shoots. Today we shot the Chapa Family. The energy was flowing and never was there a dull moment during this session. When I was first contacted about doing this session my first thought was, "Man, this is going to be tough." I always get nervous when doing a large family because the hardest part is getting them all to look the same way while keeping their eyes open. Over the past years I have learned a few tricks that work for me, but when many children are involved it's still tough. Well, today was a great session. All the children cooperated. The weather was great and everyone just had a good time.

I believe this was a family get together for their father who was celebrating an age milestone. To that I would like to say Happy Birthday Thomas. To the Chapa family, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your celebration in taking your family photos. It was fun.
